Greetings, folks, and thanks in advance for any help y'all can give me here.
Most of my folk and ancestries (here coded as races and subraces) work just dandy. But I've noticed that if a parent race has selectable choices, and then you select the subrace in character build, you don't always get to make those selections.
Por ejemplo:
Mama "race" gets a +1 bump to CON, then a +1 to player's choice of ability score.
Kiddo "subrace" gets a +1 bump to CON also.
Under "Racial Traits" and "Ability Score Increase," the only text I get is from the kiddo. But I get BOTH the + 1 CON from the kiddo and the + 1 CON from the mama.
HOWEVER, the + 1 ability of your choice simply does not appear in character creation, which that means that poor sucker is only getting +2 ASIs when I've balanced all my folk to get +3. Any thoughts on a fix that isn't just giving the + 1 Ability of your choice individually to each kiddo/ancestry?

Can you link your races/subraces here?

Is that possible without publishing?

Thanks for the quick response, btw.
Yep. Moderators can see unpublished homebrew, but only if we have the link.
